Oops I forgot to post here again. Anywhere, this is the chapter that went up on Monday. A new one coming tomorrow!

>“You really do like it, then?”

>“I truly do. I shall make sure to cherish it.”

>Crowley swallowed thickly, telling himself that the dryness in his mouth had nothing to do with the word ‘cherish’ on Aziraphale’s lips.

* **Summary:**

TL;DR: Crowley is a scientist. Aziraphale is a siren. The year is 1911, and the place is Antarctica. Also, there’s tons of kinky sex.

The real-life Terra Nova Expedition, organised by the British Royal Navy, took place between 1910 and 1913 under the leadership of Captain Scott. His main goal was to win the race to the South Pole, but scientific research was a priority as well. Six of his men, collectively known as the Northern Party, spent most of 1911 on a remote beach that would turn out to be the world’s largest Adélie penguin rookery.

In this story, Anthony J. Crowley (surgeon, zoologist, photographer) takes the place of Northern Party member George Murray Levick. I tried to stick as much as possible to the actual scientific facts and timeline of events, but some creative license did have to be taken.

For example, there was no real-life monsterfucking at any point during the Terra Nova Expedition… as far as we know.

Just a few things before I go:

* This is only the first part of my polar multiverse. I summarized the other seven stories in [this earlier post](https://www.reddit.com/r/GoodOmensAfterDark/comments/1p6p5xk/introducing_the_good_omens_polar_multiverse/).
* The doors of my new [Discord server](https://discord.gg/pYH2W8RCAg) are open :)
